Kelsey E. Schenck; Doy Kim; Fangli Xia; Michael I. Swart; Candace Walkington; Mitchell J. Nathan – Grantee Submission, 2024
Access to body-based resources has been shown to augment cognitive processes, but not all movements equally aid reasoning. Interactive technologies, like dynamic geometry systems (DGS), potentially amplify the link between movement and geometric representation, thereby deepening students' understanding of geometric properties. This study…

Lei, Wu; Qing, Fang; Zhou, Jin – International Journal of Distance Education Technologies, 2016
There are usually limited user evaluation of resources on a recommender system, which caused an extremely sparse user rating matrix, and this greatly reduce the accuracy of personalized recommendation, especially for new users or new items. This paper presents a recommendation method based on rating prediction using causal association rules.…

Blazek, Nicole L.; Forbey, Johnathan D. – Assessment, 2011
Although the use of computerized testing in psychopathology assessment has increased in recent years, limited research has examined the impact of this format in terms of potential differences in test validity rates. The current study explores potential differences in the rates of valid and invalid Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory--2…

Smith, Ryan Cummings – ProQuest LLC, 2010
Prior research on students' uses of technology has suggested it can be used to support students' development of formal justifications and proofs. The ways in which these technologies influence the construction of arguments and proofs remain uncertain. Furthermore, research has not been conducted that compares the arguments students develop while…

Lavy, Ilana – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2007
This paper reports an example of a situation in which university students had to solve geometrical problems presented to them dynamically using the interactive computerized environment of the "MicroWorlds Project Builder". In the process of the problem solving, the students used ten different solution strategies. The unsuccessful…
